Few can match Lil' Wayne in terms of pure mug shot production.
Snoop Dogg and Riley Giles. That's it. Kumari Fulbright may have the best single celebrity mug shot, but she's not as prolific as the aforementioned duo.
But that's another debate. Back to Lil' Wayne's most recent run-in with the law, which occurred last night and produced this pair of mug shot gems...
Law enforcement officials say that Wayne, whose real name is Dwayne Carter Jr., was arrested near Yuma, Arizona last night on three felony counts:
- Possession of dangerous drugs
- Possession of narcotics
- Possession of drug paraphernalia
No clue how exactly #1 differs from #2, but TMZ says the Drug Enforcement Agency was involved in the troubled rapper's arrest. That means it's not a Lil' Problem - which we hear is the name of Wayne's cousin.
The rapper is in the custody of the Yuma County Sheriff's Department, where he'll be held pending his arraignment at 9:00 a.m. PST.
UPDATE: Lil' Wayne has been hit with some big charges - namely possession of cocaine, ecstasy and drug paraphernalia. He could be in jail a lil' while.
Wayne was arrested with two others who have been charged with possession of marijuana. Cops say they found 105 grams of pot, 29 grams of cocaine and 41 grams of ecstasy on his tour bus - after it stopped at a Border Patrol checkpoint.
Police also found $22,000 in cash and a 40-caliber pistol, but Lil Wayne evidently does have a permit to carry a concealed weapon in Florida. They are checking to see if that carries over to Arizona. A judge set his bond at $10,000.
Lil Wayne was also arrested in Idaho last year for possession of drugs.

I think that the law and the hatters need to give thus fine, talented rapper a break they are messing with this young celeberity when thry need to be trying to find these killers and other drug dealers who are harming others . now lil wayne was not hurting or harming amtone and i really dont think it is far that the law and others are bothering him when right after they arrest him they are going to go home and listen to his music or talk about him.............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lil wayne is like most of his fans and followers - worthless crap. If it wasn't drugs then it would be shooting or some other nonsense because they have no common sense. Put his ass in jail now so he can go ahead and start enjoying himself with the rest of the sewage pretending to be victims.
